Hope to see some of you there.<br />By the way, while it's not that important, if folk would be kind enough to send their new comments to the current blog post, that would be appreciated.<br />Thanks<br />NickNick B (DWT)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517644049991406941.post-51556559766779762442015-05-29T08:37:55.180+01:002015-05-29T08:37:55.180+01:00Thanks Heather for your kind words.
For those who ...Thanks Heather for your kind words.<br />For those who don't know, Reflections is a free magazine which circulates very widely in central and NE Derbyshire and always has a wildlife article in it.<br />This piece was written back in March I think so it won't have included any up to date information on the eggs or chicks but hopefully will promote the project and the birds to an audience that may know little about either.<br />Nick B (Derbyshire Wildlife Trust)Nick Brown (DWT)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517644049991406941.post-44838091004024654542015-05-28T23:21:08.894+01:002015-05-28T23:21:08.894+01:00Congratulations Nick B on a superb article in the ...

What a privilege to be able to watch the whole process, I can't imagine anything more scary than hanging on a piece of rope at such a height with an angry falcon flying around!<br />Well done all concerned and looking forward to seeing how they develop and fledge over the next few weeks.MaryThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03761517354867397568noreply@blogger.com
